THE CLARION is in receipt of Governor Zulick's annual report to the Secretary of tEe Interior. From this able document, which in itself is q refutation If the charges brought against him by a few Of the papers of the territory, and which shows his interest in and earnest endeavors for our wei fare, we reprint his eloquent ap- peal for the removal of the Apaches from our midst:
 "The Apaches are located on the San Carlos reservation, which contains 3,950 square miles, or 2,52S,O00 acres, of well watered, well timbered, and the best agri- cultural and mining land in the Territory of Arizona. They are subdivided into different tribes. As race they are lazy, thievish and murderous, seemingly inca pablo of civilization. Fed and clothed by generous government, they are ever ready to show their base ingratitude by going on the war path and numbering peaceful and inofliensive citizens. On every hill and mountain top and in every valley of southeastern Arizona, the bleached bones of the assassin ated victims of these incarnate fiends are to be found-silent but eloquent witnesses of the unwise policy of the government in herd, ing this fostering mass of shpersfi= i=' tious, criminal ignors1gte ~ 61ee 60 milss lonG and zami!ss wide, and -allse!s them posses

Lordsburg Correspondence.


 The Southern Pacific Railroad company has q force of men erecting tank of the capacity of 50,000 gallons. Last week water flowed in on the men working at the company's well so rapidly that they had to leave the drift. The question of a water supply, both for the railroad company and town use, is settled and everyone is jubilant.
 The Mutual Standard Mining company has shut down. It is said that the stoppage will only be temporarily.
 Numerous parties are arriving daily, both from the east and west, looking after mining interests that were supposed to have been aban- doned.
 Recently an important strike was made in the Tenderfoot mine at Malone, 2 prqpeEty o,.ned bz, 6fE auorA k 6idated Mining |oQqc1eI.s issi0ne of the stockhold- eeffs efs visited the camp last week and expressed himself as highly pleased with the outlook. The company have placed A. B. W. Hodges of St. Louis in charge of their mines. He has a com plete assaying outfit with him and he intends to thoroughly test not only the Bulldog group, but the entire Malone district, for the in- formation of parties in the East.
 Now, if Stein's pass and Gold Hill had like facilities with Ma lone and Shakespeare, in the way of capital to develop with, what future would be at hand for " Godsburg."
 The question of agriculture is now being discussed by our citi- zens, and a number will likely ex- pertinent on small scale the com ing season. No one entertains any doubt as to the fertility of the soil in this locality, but some doubt as to the raising of a crop without irrigation. The exper1- mentors referred to claim that by deep blowing or sub-soiling the land will retain sufficient moisture to raise good crops of either oats or barley after the rainy season shall have set in. The richness of the land cannot be denied. The luXurant grasses that so readily spring mp after q slight rain will attest that fact. It remains to be seen whether or not it will take ir- rigation to insure crops on land such as Is now public domain sur us. The opinion of your correspondent is that deep blow ing will solve the problem of az riculture in the broad, magnificent valleys hereabouts and on the un- foothills of the noun tains surrounding this place. The soil is generally black, sandy loam of from six to twelve feet deep, resting on an almost con- crete hardpan. If the ground is given an opportunity 1t will ab- sorb water and hold it in spite of a droughty period, say one season. Next year the matter will be tested, and it is safe to say new feature will be presented of a re- zion that has always been classed as desert, which will be the theme of gifted descriptive writers, whose fertile brains will do no more than justice to the subject of farming rn the continental divide in New Mexico.

BENJAMIN R. ENGLISH, Postr
rTr. kyartn RepIy.

From the "Portfolio' of the American Magazine l
 A correspondent who has been reading the anecdotes about senators in our last mum Der was an eyewitness of the following oc- currence.
 At New York city, in the fall of 1s6-, case was tried before Judge Sutherland, in which the law firm of Evarts, Southmayd & Cheate appeared for the defence. Mr. Evarts made the concluding argument, and the fame of of the counselor secured for him considerable audience of lawyers from neighboring courts, in addition to many persons who had more or less interest in the proceedings.
 MT. Evarts had been speaking for some hours and was evidently nearing his per- oration. He began to sum up his argu- ments, and asked impressively what answer could be made to them. Again he placed the points in lucid array, and again asked similar question. Then a third time he restated his case with vivid eloquence, and once more, in louder tones, wound up with:
 f'What is their answer."
 He paused. You could have heard 8 pin drop. Suddenly the door of the court room opened, and peddler, sticking his head and feather duster into the opening, cried out:
 "Brooms!'
 In a moment the room was ringing with uncomfortable laughter, in which every body ioined-even the judge on the bench and the orator himself. MT. Evarts, however, kept on his feet. and was the first to recover composure. With his hand raised to com mand attention, as the roar subsided, he said, solemnly:
 "That was not, indeed, the reply which I expected. But you may rest assured that when you do get their answer you will find it equally frivolous and incense quent."

Members of the Company DevfsiRg
 Plans for Floating the Bonds.
 NEW YORK, June 2.-The following members of the New York and Boston Rapid Transit company, organized to build new line from this city to the Hub, have been here since Wednesday looking into the project: Joseph R. Bodwell of Maine, president; Gregory Smith of Vermont, vice president; William M. Thayer, secretary and treasurer; George N. Stark of Nashua, N. H., William Hatcher of Boston, H. A. Blood of Fitchburg, Levi M. Bates, 0. V. Sidell and T. N. Brown of New York City, W. G. Chapman of Boston, D. o. Lindsley of Canada and L. E. Chitten- den of New York city. On Wednesday the entire party went over the projected route out of New York city from the Boulevard and Fifty ninth street, where ths depot is de- signed.to be, to Pelham avenue. This after noon the executive committee, with large dis cretionary power, have been in session sidering the immediate financial demands of the enterprise. There will probably be is- sued soon a call for holders to pay full par or one-eighth of all held ings, which will yield nearly one hundred thousand dollars. The tetal amount of bonds to be authorized will be 0,o00, ,000 at per cent. The Transit company now has three offers to take the whole amount, but plan mora favorable than either of these pro- posals is maturing for placing the bonds in New York, Boston and Canada.

Natives on the Warpath at Sierra
 Leone.

LONDON, June 2.-Advices from Sierra Leone say that the native warriors under three chiefs invaded the British settlements of Sherbro and Suetyus, pillaging and bum ing villages en route, torturing and killing the native inhabitants and taking three hun dred prisoners. On entering British territory the marauders divided and tried to capture the French factory at Sulymot. MT. Burnett, the English agent, at the head of the native laborers desperately resisted the savages who were compelled to retreat after the third at tack, leaving many dead. They besieged the station, however, for four days when the gunboat Icarius arrived on the scene and landed force of marines who put the sav- ages to flight. The attaches of the French factory repulsed the attack made upon them y,1oida6

BUTLER HOES UP SERENELY.
Willing to Enter Politics Again When
 an Emergency Arises.


 BOSTON, June 2.-A number of personal friends and admirers of General Butler met this afternoon at the Revere House and formed Butler club. A constitution and bylaws were adopted and the following of fcers chosen: President, Colonel Noah A. Plympton; vice presidents, John I. Baker, John Boyle OReilly, William Taylor, Dr. A. R. Rice, Colonel Roland G. Usher, Stephen M. Allen, W. L. Douglass, A. A. Haggett, E. G. Walker; treasurer, Colonel H. c. Drink water; secretary, J. Mitchell Calvin. A committee was appointed to wait upon Gen eral Butler and request his presence, and the general soon made his appearance, being warmly greeted. General Butler was then called upon to speak and said that the gather ing was wholly unexpected to him and that he appreciated such work of friendship most highly. "1 doubt somewhat" he said, "whether your action will not be misconstrued, but you have the satisfaction of knowing that every act is liable to the same attack. I am ignorant of the objects of this club save through the report Of the committee, but am with you socially. l cannot see how it can be political club, for as I myself am concerned I can see no reason fer entering politics again unless an emergency arises, nor do think, except in such case, diseuss politics in the club it should be on the broad basis of what is best for the State and the nation rather than on mere party lines. My coming here was wholly unex- pected and must leave to meet other en- gagements. I thank you again for this mark After the general had retired the club voted to have its first dinner at the Revere House Saturday, June IS, at p. m. and then adjourned until that date.

lCommunicated.1 Mrs. Leonard W. RRcOD,


 The death of Mrs. Susan Bacon has brought sorrow to many hearts here as well as in oth- CT places where her lot hes been cast. The writer of this does not wish to intrude on the private grief of stricken family, but only to pay slight tribute of affection to the memory of one who inspired it in all who came in contact with her. Always rather delicate in health, she spent her strength lavishly, first on her family and then in the interest of the church wherever she was. helPmeet to her husband, a faithful mother to her children, true-hearted Chris ton woman and most tender and sympa- thizing friend to all who were afflicted or disturbed. As a pastors wife, the most prudent of speech and wise in counsel. But love seemed to be the ruling element of her character, which extended to the whole human family, and how many will miss her words of cheer and ready sympathy. Can we doubt that she has found rest in better country, even a heavenly:
 And when the Lord shall summon us
 Whom thou hast left behind,
 May we, untainted by the world,
 As sure welcome find;
 May we, like thee, depart in peace
 To be glorious guest
 Where the wicked cease from troubling
 And the weary arc at rest.
 A FRIEND

A Farmer shoots Hts Wife,

BRATTLEBoRo, Vt, June 2.-Revilo How ard, about ffty-fve years old, we'll known Jamaica farmer, shot his wife at that place yesterday, fatally it is thought. Howard, who had been sick at home for some time, requested his wife to go to the shed with g message for his hired man and during her absence he loaded his rife, which he dis charged at her on her return. The ball passed through her left hand and lung and was removed from her back by physicians. The cause of the shooting is attributed by the neighbors to insanity, though it is said that the physician fails to find traces of in- sanity. Some, on the other hand, pronounce it case of jealousy. The affair causes much excitement.
